Your Bike A Freezing Temps

[Runnin1ife]

So I went for a ride yesterday and it took my turn signals a little while to activate. Made for a fun ride, but then I found out why.
After having 2 weeks of 0-20 degree weather I did some research and had some coffee with my neighbor who is also an enthusiast just been around twice as long as me.
Long story short ish, some motorbikes just dont care for cold weather. Condensation can seep into almost anything not air tight, then it freezes, preventing things from contacting like they should be.

So after it warmed up to 34, the issue was gone.!!!!!
Ride safe

Yea in this weather I start mine up and wait for the auto choke to calm down before even thinking about moving off. I just give the bike a wipe over while I wait. Especial the lights as they get covered by the rock salt they love to layer the roads with round my way.
